They are a veteran-heavy team that will surprise teams this season. Look no further than their 2-2 record through their first four games.<\/p>\n<p>However, all 2-2 teams are not built the same. Take Toronto\u2019s opponent tomorrow night, the Phoenix Mercury. While the Mercury are also 2-2, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.basketball-reference.com\/wnba\/years\/2026.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">advanced stats rank them the top team in the league<\/a>, over 13 points per game better than the \u201caverage team\u201d. The Tempo, meanwhile, are almost six points worse than the average team.<\/p>\n<p>While it\u2019s a small sample size, only four games played for each team \u2013 less than a tenth of the season \u2013 after crunching the numbers, I have Phoenix as 22.5 point favorites tomorrow night, which gives us plenty of breathing room on the actual spread at the books.<\/p>\n<p>Best Bet: Phoenix -7.5 (-105)<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Best Bet Overall 2026 Record: 79-58 (58%)<br \/>Profit (based on $100\/bet):\u00a0$231.77<br \/>Return on Investment: 2%<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>SGPN Daily Content for May 19th, 2026<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/2026\/05\/18\/daily-nba-player-props-may-18th\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Daily NBA Player Props<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/2026\/05\/18\/mlb-nrfi-and-yrfi-picks-may-18th-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">MLB NRFI &amp; YRFI Daily Bets<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/2026\/05\/18\/nba-playoffs-predictions-preview-for-tuesday-may-19th\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Daily NBA Best Bets<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/2026\/05\/18\/mma-prelim-pick-of-the-week-pfl-brussels\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">MMA Daily Best Bet<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/2026\/05\/17\/nhl-goal-scorer-parlay-for-monday-may-18th-nhl-predictions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">NHL Goal Scorer Parlay<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t Forget About our free picks pages, too!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/nba-picks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">NBA PICKS \u2013 UPDATED DAILY<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/odds.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/college-basketball-picks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">COLLEGE BASKETBALL PICKS \u2013 THE PICKS POWERHOUSE<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/nhl-picks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">NHL PICKS \u2013 LET IT SLIDE<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/soccer-picks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">SOCCER PICKS \u2013 KICK IT ON THE PITCH<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/nascar-picks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">NASCAR PICKS \u2013 FEEL THE THUNDER<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/ufc-picks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">UFC PICKS \u2013 TAKE DOWN CORPORATE GAMBLING<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"We\u2019ve got a day off before the Stanley Cup Playoffs resume with the conference finals, so let\u2019s head&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":651533,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[73],"tags":[2109,99,434],"class_list":["post-651532","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-wnba","tag-blog","tag-sports","tag-wnba"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/651532","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=651532"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/651532\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/651533"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=651532"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=651532"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=651532"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
